644 Dark Clouds in Hai Province
In the morning, the cool sea breeze brought a salty and humid atmosphere to the city.
The sky was like a sparkling sapphire with clouds like white jade embedded in it.
However, the youths of Green Spirit City’s First Middle School were all lifeless. They lowered their heads and walked into the campus like zombies.
Not only that but there would also be a patrol officer standing guard outside the school walls at regular intervals.
“What happened?”
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan realized that something was wrong.
They stopped at the school gate for a long time and realized that almost all the students were unwilling to go to school. Occasionally, they saw one or two people sobbing softly as they walked. Some students also glared at Lu Benwei and Chu Yan when they passed by.
“I’ll just ask a random student,” Lu Benwei said.
Then, he found a student as his target and walked up to him. “Student, may I ask…”
Before he could finish speaking, the student looked at Lu Benwei with fear and immediately ran away.
In the next second, three policemen surrounded Lu Benwei and Chu Yan.
“The two of you, please show me your identity information.”
“I’m sorry, sir, we didn’t bring our IDs.”
“If you didn’t bring it, please follow me to the police station.”
The two of them were very surprised. What exactly happened?
“Can I not go?” Chu Yan asked softly. They still had to find the vice principal, so they could not delay any longer.
“No!” a police officer said with his eyes wide open.
At this moment, a bicycle stopped at the side and a young man got off.
“Little Lu! What’s wrong with you guys?”
This person was Lu Benwei’s uncle, Lu Shuangquan.
“Hello, Teacher Lu!”
The leader of the patrol officers knew Lu Shuangquan because Lu Shuangquan had just graduated and was teaching in this school.
“Do you know these two?” The chief officer frowned.
The leader of the patrol officers glanced at the two of them and felt that Lu Benwei was indeed somewhat similar to Lu Shuangquan. He said, “In that case, you don’t have to go to the police station. Just leave your name and phone number.”
After Lu Benwei thanked him, he asked, “Uncle, what’s wrong with your school?”
“Sigh…” Lu Shuangquan sighed deeply and said, “One of the vice principals of our school was killed!”
“Huh?”
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan’s expressions tensed up at the same time. They hurriedly asked, “Which principal is it?”
Lu Shuangquan was stunned when he saw their expressions.
The leader of the patrol officers, who was jotting their names and phone numbers, also turned his ears.
“It’s Vice Principal Yu Liang…”
“What?” Lu Benwei’s expression froze, and his pupils constricted.
This Senior Yu Liang was Principal Chen Yuan’s teacher, the forging master that Lu Benwei and Chu Yan wanted to find.
Seeing their reactions, the leader of the patrol officers gave his two subordinates a look.
“Why are you two looking for the dead?” the leader of the patrol officers asked coldly.
After a murder case, the police had to track down the murderer. The identity of anyone related to the deceased must be investigated!
“Ask him to help me forge my equipment!” Lu Benwei replied because if he hide it, there would be a big mess.
“It’s like this. Our principal is Senior Yu Liang’s beloved disciple and helped us introduce Senior Yu Liang,” Chu Yan added.
“Who is your principal?” the leader of the patrol officers frowned and asked.
“It’s Chen Yuan from Jiangsu and Zhejiang University!” Lu Benwei said.
“My nephew is a top student from the hunter university in Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province. He was the top scorer in last year’s martial arts assessment!” Lu Shuangquan said in time.
“So, it’s you, kid.” The leader of the patrol officers heaved a sigh of relief and stopped asking.
At this time, Lu Benwei said,” Sir, may I ask what killed Senior Yu Liang?”
“The murder case is still being investigated.”
“Alright then…”
At this moment, the patrol officer’s walkie-talkie rang. After he answered the call, he returned with a frown.
“Are you really called Lu Benwei?” The leader of the patrol officers asked with a lack of confidence.
Lu Benwei blinked and was a little confused. “If I’m not Lu Benwei, who else can I be?”
The leader of the patrol officers straightened his expression. “It’s like this. Someone will come to pick you up in a while. Just follow him into the car.”
Lu Benwei was even more puzzled.
“We don’t know either. The superior who gave me the order also acted according to the order,” the patrol officer shook his head and said.
After saying that, he called his two subordinates to go on duty.
At this moment, a few students passed by Lu Benwei and the others and greeted Lu Shuangquan, “Hello, Teacher Lu.”
They were weak and their voices were hoarse.
Lu Shuangquan sighed and said, “Let’s go in first and cheer up!”
“Principal Yu’s soul in heaven definitely wouldn’t want you to be like this.”
The children did not say much and entered the school.
“Sigh…”
Lu Shuangquan sighed again. “Vice Principal Yu is deeply loved by these children. How could such a thing happen?”
Lu Benwei was also a little sad.
Vice Principal Yu was Chen Yuan’s teacher, so he could be considered half a teacher to them.
“Uncle, how did Principal Yu get killed?” Lu Benwei asked.
Lu Shuangquan pushed up his glasses and pointed to a room on the upper floor of a building on the campus. “Yesterday afternoon, Principal Yu’s body was found in his office. A dagger of nine centimeters long pierced through his heart. The initial judgment of the patrol officer is that he was murdered.”
At this point, Lu Benwei had some doubts.
“Impossible. Elder Yu is a master forger. Even if his physique isn’t as good as a combat class, based on his level, this injury is only a small injury to him!”
“Sigh, who said so?” Lu Shuangquan sighed.
At this moment, a tattered van stopped in front of Lu Benwei. The car window rolled down, and a familiar face appeared in front of Lu Benwei. It was Hu Wu, the director of the Hai Province Law Enforcement Bureau.
“Chief Hu? You’re the one looking for me?” Lu Benwei was surprised.
Hu Wu tilted his head and said, “Get in the car!”
Chu Yan pointed at herself.
“You’re not kidnapping us, are you?”
“Who dares to kidnap you?” Hu Wu almost vomited blood.
“Lu Benwei’s uncle also needs to get in the car.”
“Huh?” Lu Shuangquan was very surprised. “Little Lu, who are they?”
“He’s the director of the Hai Province Law Enforcement Bureau!” Lu Benwei said. He was very surprised in his heart. Why did Hu Wu suddenly look for him and even involve his family?
The three of them sat in the back row of Hu Wu’s broken van and stared at Hu Wu.
“Chief, why are you looking for us? We’re all good citizens, and we didn’t collude with the monsters!”
Lu Shuangquan was very nervous.
